Magnus Ramel Inlay

I am a guitar builder from Stockholm, Sweden, specialized in inlay making and guitar parts construction. Making use of both CNC technology and hand tools, my goal is to supply both professional and amateur instrument makers with the inlay and parts they desire.

In 2013 i recieved my examination letter from Musikinstrumentakademien in Stockholm and since then I have worked with inlay work, guitar repair, building guitars and developing products for swedish company True Temperament. I also work at Jam guitars in Stockholm, mainly repairing guitars at their workshop.

I share a workspace with guitar maker Tobias Lindberg of TLL guitars, In south Stockholm.

Inlay

Do you want custom inlay work done for your lutherie project or ready instrument? Using both hand tools and cnc.technology I can provide high quality inlay in many different materials, shapes and sizes.

Guitar parts

Making bridges, fretboards and other construction details for guitars can mean tedious time consuming work. I can provide you the guitar parts of your liking, custom made and with a high degree of repeatability.Interested in guitar parts?

Inlay

I specialize in Inlaying using mainly cnc technogy, a method that assures very high precision and repeatability. For instance, If you want a larger batch of headplate logos or series of fretboard markers this method is less time consuming and more predictable than hand-tooling the inlays.

I can also provide hand cut and engraved inlay of your choice, I mostly hand cut larger one-off designs.

The materials i use differ widely. Most commonly used are different types of pearl, or pearl laminate. But I also use reconstituted stone, different types of plastics and polymers, and also softer metal alloys. Only your imagination sets the boundries, there are many materials out there that can be used for inlaying.

I have done inlay for both professional luthiers, amateurs and players just wanting to decorate their instruments. To get a price quote or if you want more info, just send me a message!

Guitar parts

Do you need a custom made fretboard with an unusual scale, fanned frets, compound radius? or maybe a bridge wich you want to look exactly the same over a series of 10 guitars?

I use Cad drawing for making guitar parts. This means that you will get a very high degree of precision and repeatability if you should need to repeat the process. All files are saved and can be reused at a later time.

A wide selection of materials can be routed out besides wood. Different types of plastics and softer metals like aluminium for example. Making it possible to provide you with your own custom jigs, acrylic templates and tools.

Currently the restriction in size for any object routed is 375x575x65mm
